Twinkle

Heartworm Positive

Personality Color: orange

Orange dogs are likely young, energetic, and enthusiastic with lots of love to give! They will thrive with regular exercise, and some training classes would be a good idea. These dogs would be a great companion for an active person who enjoys running or hiking in the park. Fenced-in yard a plus!

Bio data

Hi there! I’m so excited to meet you. I’ve been at the shelter since June now and I can’t wait to find a family that will take me in. I can tell my behavior has changed a little bit since being here for while, I mean can you blame me? I’m a sweet and smart girl at my core but being cooped up with all my energy doesn’t allow me to show my best self. It also doesn’t help that I am heart worm positive and can’t go on long walks and get all my wiggles out. I’m looking for a family that can take care of my medical needs so I can transform into who I know I am. I know “sit” and can be easily redirected when I get distracted. I’m a smart girl who loves to learn but need plenty of opportunities to do so. I can be quite mouthy but gentle with treats, probably because I love them so much! I hope you’ll come see me twinkle and shine soon.

Kids: 10+, jumpy/mouthy for handling
Dogs: Playful, rough play, may be too much for some dogs
